A peculiar Mexican CITY.

The city Of Guanajuato, in Mexico, 1t Is
said, would never have been built but for
the mines. 1t Is crowded into a narrow
deflle seven miles long by about one
quarter of n mile wide. In some places q
stone can be thrown from hill to hill over
the city. Street cars, each drawn by four
mules, leave the station at the mouth OF
the ravine and climb until they come to
the upper end Of the city, where the
ravine stops abruptly against the
ain. The streets are SO narrow that a
letter box would be an obstruction II
fastened to the side Of the building in the
usual way, so this useful institution Is
provided for by chiseling a hole for 1t In
the wall. On the main street, which fol-
lows the center line Of the ~ravine, there is
room for two vehicles to pass each other,
but the most of the t~horoughfares are only
passable for burros. A double track Is
impossible, and the single street car line
il operated by a series Of switches and by
the almost constant footing OK horns,
which the drivers carry hung about their
necks. Boston Transcript.

The great feature Of the Thames Is the
house boats. Some OF these are very
handsome, while others are small and
plain. A great many people W their
own house boats and spend a great part or
each summer on the river. Then there
are all kinds Of house boats for hire for a
day, q week, or longer. Some OF them are
large and viii accommodate n party OF SIX
Or eight, while others have only two
rooms. These boats are fiat bottomed and
are moved from one place To another by
small steam tugs. In this way a party
can 90 up the Thames, stopping whenever
they wish to visit any point, and be per
fectly independent, keeping house all the
time.
l saw one very handsome boat taken
past Maidenhead when ] was there. 1t
was the largest boat OF the kind / saw and
had a party OF about ten on board. The
ladies were al dressed in bright summer
dresses and were seated at the forward
end in front OF their sitting room. The
boat was painted a solid white, with the
stairs leading to the upper deck painted q
pale yellow. The trimmings around the
windows and doors were also Of pale yell
low. The upper deck was finished with
an iron railing and inside Of this stood q
row OF yellow and white daisies alternat-
ing. Large wicker easy chairs were placed
on this upper deck and a hammock was
swung at tho back end OF the boat. Atthe
windows were curtains OF pale yellow.
The whole effect was SO cool and dainty
and everything looked so comfortable that
could easily understand how one might
become greatly attached to living in a
house boat London Cor. Chicago Trib-

A Medieval Superstition.

The nightmare, supposed, OF course, to
be caused by supernatural agency, was
banished by means Of a stone with a hole
in it, being suspended at the head OF the
sufferers bed. This last remedy went by
the name of a 'hag stone" because it
prevented the witches, who, OF course,
wrought the mischief, from sitting on the
patients stomach. It's effect upon these
mischievous old crones was ~singularly de-
terrent. The poor old creatures, who
could not have sat a horse the moment ne
began to walk, were credited with riding
these animals over the moorland at head
long speed In the dead Of night, when bet
ter disposed and less frisky people were
wrapped in slumber. A "hag stone" TIED
to the key of the stable door at once put
a stop to these heathenish vagaries'-

have any business to do, anything to put

DIAMONDS AND PEARLS THOU rAsT

Diamonds and pearls thou has.,
Li'c's joys upon thee pour,
And thou hast eyes most beautiful
My love, what wilt thou morey
Ny heart has given undying songs
Like waves upon the shore,
And oil TO praise those eyes Of thine

And with those wondrous eyes hast thou
Tormented me full sore,
And made OF me thy captive slave
My hove, what wilt thou mores
--Catharins s. Holmes; from the German.
